r/Colby

My incoming freshman was assigned a double in Leonard Hall.

Looking for honest impressions- noisy? Fun? Far from classes/dining? Thanks for any feedback from those who lived there.

Anyone know if there’s a kitchen students can use in East? Thanks.

My daughter will be a first year student and she missed the parking permit sale yesterday. She said the parking permit link says that it is sold out. What are her options for getting a parking permit at this time? Thanks.

Hi, I just want to learn a little bit more about Cole because I couldn’t find much stuff about it online. I want to study economics and environmental science to hopefully get my PhD from a top university.

I was just wondering how good the professors are and how difficult it is to maintain a high GPA is it like the same level as bates or would you say it is more rigorous than Bates or less rigorous ?
I was also wondering what the social life is like I heard it is very athlete dominated but I don’t really understand what that means.

I was also wondering how it is for a person of color to go to the school cause I’ve heard the school could seem very preppy and very white

I was also wondering how the mentorship at Colby is like is there a lot of mentorship and how easy is it to get research opportunities and are they paid well? I heard Colby has a very large endowment compared to most other level or its colleges and that allows them to spend their money very generously

I was also wondering how GPA sensitive Colby is because I want to early decision to the school if I like it and I have a pretty low GP a around a 3.3 but I’ve max rigger and a 35 ACT do yall think I have a chance

And any other cool information that you can add would be great
